Customer reviews

Spot-on ExactEmerge calibration and thorough inspection

Gertrude P. Equipment purchase

We upgraded our planting setup with a late-model DB60 from 21st Century Equipment, and their precision ag specialists really stood out. They inspected every brush belt, verified the vacuum seals, and calibrated the row-unit sensors before the planter left their yard. Parts availability is strong across their locations, though you occasionally wait a day for a branch transfer during peak spring rush. Great dealership to partner with.

Clean cab UTV and straightforward trade-in process

Christine M. Equipment purchase

Trading in our older ranch UTV for a newer enclosed-cab Gator XUV835M was quick and easy. The sales rep offered a fair trade value over the phone without any back-and-forth games, and the new unit arrived freshly serviced with clean filters and full fluids. Great machine for year-round pasture checks.

Field-ready primary tillage tool and fast phone support

Jason D. Equipment purchase

We needed a heavy-duty combination ripper for fall subsoil work, and 21st Century Equipment had a clean 2730 ready to roll. The guys on the phone sent detailed walkaround videos of the shanks, disc gangs, and hydraulic cylinders right away. Delivery arrived right on schedule, and the implement pulled evenly across every acre. Their parts counter gets busy on Monday mornings, so calling ahead helps, but their service quality is easily 5 stars.

Thorough spindle inspection and reliable harvest support

Jimmie W. Equipment purchase

Upgrading our harvesting equipment through 21st Century Equipment was completely hassle-free. Their technicians went through the row units, checked the moisture sensors, and tested the round-module builder before shipping. Pricing was competitive compared to other regional dealers, and the machine ran cleanly from day one.

Honest opener blade measurements and smooth delivery

Alexander C. Equipment purchase

Finding a used no-till drill that isn't worn out can be tough, so we appreciated how transparent their team was. The guys on the phone measured the opener blades, checked all down-pressure springs, and sent clear photos before we committed. It arrived ready to seed cover crops immediately.

Honest kernel processor report and zero-pressure buying

Nancy W. Equipment purchase

Sourcing a used forage harvester requires real confidence in the service department, and 21st Century Equipment delivered. The sales team gave us an honest breakdown of the cutterhead hours, metal detector checks, and shearbar life with zero hidden fees. Their certified mechanics walked our operator through all the harvest settings upon delivery. Very happy with their customer service!

Great loader tractor prep and helpful operator walkthrough

Elizabeth L. Equipment purchase

We purchased a pre-owned 5090M for daily feeding and bale handling, and the service crew at 21st Century Equipment exceeded expectations. They tested the loader joystick valves, inspected the rear PTO clutch, and delivered the tractor right on time. Fair pricing and friendly, knowledgeable staff.

Spotless commercial mower and zero hidden fees

Douglas B. Equipment purchase

Picked up a low-hour Z970R for maintaining our farmstead and ditches. The sales team had all the maintenance records ready, sharpened the blades, and verified the hydraulic wheel motors before handing it over. Fast paperwork, fair pricing, and top-tier service.

Exceptional IVT transmission check and smooth delivery

Phillip H. Equipment purchase

Buying a pre-owned 7R 290 from 21st Century Equipment was a straightforward, reliable experience. The sales rep sent over full CommandCenter diagnostic logs and fluid sample reports over the phone before we finalized anything. Their service crew prepped the tractor thoroughly so it arrived completely field-ready. Pricing was fair for the market, and their communication was top-notch.
